ETHGas

Description

ETHGas is a pioneering Realtime Ethereum Infrastructure protocol that accelerates Ethereum transaction speeds by over 100x through blockspace commoditization, enabling an instant, gasless user experience and improved validator yields. Launched on Ethereum mainnet in 2025 by a team primarily based in Hong Kong, ETHGas introduces a blockspace market that allows Ethereum gas and block inclusion rights to be traded ahead of time rather than exclusively through spot auctions at block production. Ethereum’s base layer currently operates with approximately 12-second block times, where blockspace is sold on demand. ETHGas supplements this model by decomposing blocks into smaller units and enabling validators to sell future blockspace through forward and futures-style markets. Participants such as validators, block builders, and searchers can buy, sell, or trade these blockspace units in advance, enabling more predictable execution and lower latency confirmations. The protocol supports pre-confirmations, which allow transactions to receive execution guarantees before final block inclusion. This approach reduces effective settlement times for applications that require faster feedback than standard block confirmation intervals. ETHGas operates as infrastructure that integrates with existing Ethereum validator software and does not replace Ethereum consensus.
